Dedicated Servers 10/2/19 Feedback
Queue times are insanely good, finding a match takes no more than a minute maximum in my experience so far. The problem is interacting with anything in game, and killer powers, almost all killers I've tested on the servers have a delay when using their powers (Especially Myers and Huntress), and kicking generators and breaking pallets is painful to say the least. On the survivor side, it doesn't feel as bad but that's simply because you have less interaction with the game at all times, and your performance doesn't rely on saving seconds within a match. We're making good progress, but at the moment I'm waiting until they stop testing the servers to play again, because it hurts. Sorry to be blunt, but you guys need to know about these things. Let me know your experience with the servers so far good and bad. I'd love to hear them.

Survivor side is awful. Dropped a pallet a few times and got hit through it and the killer didn't make the stun sound/animation until I was already on the ground. Killers rubberbanding through pallets too. Dedicated servers need to be removed, they arent ready for live.

I just played a game as Legion and some things were awful.
Starting the frenzy has a small delay, stopping the power is the exact same.
Hits also have a very small delay but they actually hit.
Now, overall it seems really good, with the exception of grabs and dead hard. One time I tried to grab a dwight in a window but it ignored the grab when he was middle-vaulting it right in front of me and I just hit the window.
TL;DR My hit went through him and hit the window, that was in front of him, instead of grabbing.
I just wonder how the game health will increase when, at least, the infrastructure is fixed.
Just a question. Having dedicated servers will make it easier for the devs to program the game?

So they fixed hitting through windows?
Great!

I got confused for a moment, but then used my brain.

you should be able to hit through windows tbh, not like the killers have T rex arms and cant reach their arms past the windows with their weapons.....

Its a window not a door!

so what? are the killers arms so thick that the ENTIRE SURVIVOR can fit through the window but not a killers arm holding their weapon?

So you agree with them? I'm confused :)

Something tells me you've never been chainsawed through a window, finished vault. It's bullshit. Always was.

While sometimes the window hitbox can be bad, it's completely fair most of the time in my experience.

So you cant stick your arm out a window?
0 -
that's what I said!

the chainsaw has length to the saw part, why should it start a the window? if you are still in the slow fault animation it should hit, survivors already have a lot of second chances they don't need more

Nobody said anything about slow vaulting, learn to read.

Window vault. Not a wall.
We can also hit through/over fences on maps with them.
If you fast vault and the killer is still close enough to reach their hand over a fence to hit you should get hit.

can we get back to the topic at hand?
I had several game errors after waiting for a lobby and right after I was brought to the loading page of the lobby, the game would be idle for a while then give me a NAT error and kicking me back to the killer page.
I also had 2 games out of 4 that I played last night that the game kicked me out with the error "you have been disconnected from the game"
whats with those?
oh and someone please fix the delay on breaking palettes, its like a second delay (half before and half after kicking animation) that deducts from the chase time.

Rubber band with Nurse is real.
67ms ping in lobby. Lagged like hell.
1 -
I keep getting NAT error while trying to join as killer, its like 1 out of 3 games, sometimes 2 in a row.
Finally got a hag game, but darn the lags (I was like 100ms ping to the server), not a single blink resulted in a hit. camera was looking the wrong direction after blink, speed was wrong (I was starting slow for a while then burst into run after blin) .....

Can confirm it is especially terrible as myers. The lag delay really messes up your stalking. Numerous times I pop T3 and the music plays but then it instantly regresses back to T2 due to the ping delay. Hard to save up stalk for when you need it due to the ping issue.
Not only that but there is a delay before you even start stalking. In westcoast USA btw. I gave far better ping to survivors than these dedicated servers.
